The Ready Set, brainchild of Fort Wayne, Ind.’s Jordan Witzigreuter is a one-man alternative pop band influenced by life, love and music.

How do we know she’s a member… Read more »

Now, well-versed in pop superstardom and with a new album in the wings, the band returned to St. Louis last Tuesday for an intimate night at the tiny Creepy Crawl.

The group’s “pal” reportedly told the magazine that Grammy voters have been put off by Simpson since she was caught lip-synching on Saturday Night Live in 2004. “This… Read more »
